    I got a Giant SCR 1.0 for this purpose for less than £500.

    Other contendor for me was the Specialized Allez.

    Do a search, this has been covered loads.

    I have reasently found ot about Chris Boardman's new range of bikes.

    For £900 there is the Boardman team racing bike

    http://www.boardmanbikes.com/

    This has had amazing reviews. However you can only perchase one of these via halfords. The bike is so good for the money its worth it though.

    You could get a Planet-X or Focus Cayo, both carbon frames with Ultegra for £999.
